This is not the first time Vaselnitskaya has given inconsistent statements to the Senate panel. She denied having any ties to the Kremlin when the Trump Tower meeting was first revealed, but has since admitted to working with Russia’s prosecutor general, Yuri Chaika.

However, she insists that the answers given “have not been coordinated with anyone” and were provided “in total ignorance of the substance of testimonies provided by other meeting participants or attendees.”

It also seems both Vaselnitskaya and Donald Trump Jr. went into the Trump Tower meeting with different objectives.

The Daily Caller reports that Vaselnitskaya entered the meeting with the purpose of lobbying against the Magnitsky Act, a 2012 US law that was intended to punish Russian officials suspected of human rights abuse.

Trump Jr. attended the meeting after Rob Goldstone offered dirt on the Clinton campaign provided by a Russian government attorney.

Although she is the attorney referenced by Goldstone, Vaselnitskaya denies in her testimony being aware of the offer of information on Hilary Clinton.

“Donald Trump Jr. asked if I had any financial documents proving that what may have been illegally obtained funds were also being donated to Mrs. Clinton’s foundation,” her testimony said. “I said that I did not and that it was not my issue.”

Any accusations that Trump Jr. tried to conspire with the Russian government have been denied by the White House and Trump Jr.

Vaselnitskaya did, however, bring a four-page memo to the meeting with Simpson’s research on the Browder project, the Daily Caller reported.

In his House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence interview on Nov. 14, Simpson denied knowledge of his research ending up in the hands of Russia’s prosecutor general or Vaselnitskaya’s attendance of the Trump Tower meeting.

Vaselnitskaya’s contradictions to Simpsons statements continue to raise questions about their relationship.
